The Monroe Doctrine 2.0: Europe, It’s Time to Grow Up

For 75 years, America has been Europe’s security blanket. Maybe it’s time to fold it up. The Monroe Doctrine wasn’t about policing the entire planet—it was about protecting our own hemisphere first. NATO still matters. Article 5 still matters. But Europe’s wealthy democracies aren’t helpless children anymore. Build your armies. Fund your defense. Guard your own neighborhood. Uncle Sam can still be the backstop—but it’s time to stop treating him like an unlimited credit card with a standing military attached.

574 Governments, Zero Consensus

The myth that America would magically function better with more political parties ignores one stubborn fact: more factions don’t automatically create more agreement. Look at the 574 federally recognized tribal governments. They don’t speak with one voice—and they shouldn’t be expected to. The 2022 renaming of 643 geographic features proved that even within Native communities, history, language, and culture are far more complex than Washington’s one-size-fits-all solutions. Diversity of opinion is a strength, but pretending there’s only one “correct” voice is politics masquerading as consensus.

America Didn’t Become More Political. It Became More Tribal

The real problem isn’t that America has two political parties—it’s that we’ve rediscovered tribalism. I remember growing up in the 1980s when your “tribe” was mostly your family, your neighborhood, your church, or the people your parents spent time with. Democrats and Republicans certainly disagreed, but most Americans weren’t immersed in the other side’s outrage 24 hours a day. Social media changed that. Today we’re constantly exposed to the loudest, angriest voices from the “other tribe,” and algorithms profit by keeping us divided, suspicious, and emotionally invested in conflict. Every insult, every viral clip, and every political flashpoint reinforces the idea that our fellow Americans are enemies rather than neighbors. When political hatred escalates into threats or acts of violence—including attacks targeting public figures—it should remind us that tribalism, left unchecked, stops being politics and starts becoming something far more dangerous. A constitutional republic cannot survive if our highest loyalty is to the tribe instead of to the principles that bind us together.

America at 250: A History of Government Trying to Mute Free Speech

The First Amendment was ratified in 1791. Just seven years later, Congress passed the Alien and Sedition Acts, making it a crime to criticize the federal government. Since then, nearly every generation has been told that “this” crisis—war, communism, terrorism, or COVID—justifies limiting speech “for the greater good.” The slogans change. The excuses evolve. But one lesson has remained remarkably consistent for 250 years: governments don’t usually attack free speech head-on—they simply find a reason why yours should be the exception.

USAID Was Using OUR Tax Dollars To Fund Leftist Governments: No More!!!

USAID Was Using OUR Tax Dollars To Fund Leftist Governments: No More!!!

Secretary Rubio cancelled 83% of programs funded by OUR tax dollars via USAID in April 2025. He cancelled contracts worth TENS OF BILLIONS of dollars. By July 2025 USAID had ceased to exist as an independent agency. What was left of it was folded into the State Department.

Thank you, England: Too bad you’ve abandoned the civil liberties that you gave us

A few Brits on Twitter congratulated us on our 250th birthday as a nation by reminding us that this Sunday they will celebrate the 1,099th anniversary of their nationhood.

Well, cheers to them as well.

Washington’s Revolutionary War flag

On July 2, 1776, the Continental Congress met in Philadelphia to formally vote to declare independence from Great Britain. The vote of the states was 12 yes, 0 no, and 1 abstention. New York failed to vote because its delegates claimed they lacked direction from their state government.

Why they try communism

Roger Kimball wrote, “Why socialism will fail,” a pretty nifty if overly intellectualized piece that encapsulates the common smug capitalist prediction of doom because “sooner or later you run out of other people’s money.”

Hahaha, right?

Really? Well, Congress ran out of other people’s money in the 1980s. We have a national debt approaching $40 trillion—$40 million million. Maybe we’re the socialists but we just won’t admit it.

The Democrat Strategy – How Communism Will Win

Americans see the recent the elections resulting in the purging of far left democrats with even more extreme democrat communists and radical Islamists, the continued murders by illegals and felons released on no cash bail, the flight from blue/democrat states by millionaires and billionaires from taxes to red/republican states, the war by insurrectionist elected officials and judges impeding application of our laws and elections to remove illegals, and the inflationary costs to live as separate and distinct.
They are not – these efforts are part of a well thought out strategy to ensure the subversion of our country via packing the voting roles with perpetually dependent illegals and/or their children, the destruction of our middle class, and the slow but intentional subversion of red (republican) states.

The Supreme Court sanctions America’s path to Self-destruction

In its decision to reject President Trump’s effort to end birthright citizenship by ruling that he does not have the power to unilaterally overturn the longstanding principle that guarantees citizenship to all children born in the United States, the Supreme Court is sanctioning the nation’s path to self-annihilation.
